Action survival game Soulmask sees you gathering, crafting, and battling to survive and build up your tribe. The key to your strength is in your Soulmask, so which one of the three should you choose when you first start out in the game?
How to choose the right starter Mask in Soulmask
The Soulmask you choose when creating your character will give a boost to some of your stats and combat abilities, and the choice you make should be governed by the style of combat you prefer in action survival and RPG games. That said, if you’re strongly into RP or just here for the excellent crafting and would prefer you choose by style, you can, especially if playing on a very easy level.
The Civilization Mask
If you like to play a melee tank-style character, the Civilization Mask is your best choice. Its bonuses focus on defense and stamina improvement, while your Mimicry ability is a HOT that can get you out of trouble in tough fights.
